dblaikie added a comment.

Where's the name "explicit" pointer come from? I'm not sure how to read/understand the naming distinction between the names "implicit pointer" and "explicit pointer". Maybe the name should be "LLVM_implicit_pointer" as distinct from the DWARF "implicit_pointer" - that they're roughly the same concept, but the LLVM one is a generalization of it? Or is there something in the implicit/explicit distinction that helps clarify the semantic distinction between the two?
